Are you or someone you know interested in how hearing loss affects the enjoyment of music? A research team at Johns Hopkins University, led by Dr. Alexander Chern, is conducting a study to identify the factors that contribute to music enjoyment for people with hearing loss, with the goal of improving music enjoyment for these individuals.
How you can participate:
-
Survey: A short, 10–15-minute online survey about your hearing and music background
-
Interview: Some participants will be invited to take part in a 40-minute interview to discuss what music enjoyment means to them
We are specifically looking for:
-
Hearing aid users (who do not use a cochlear implant)
-
Cochlear implant users with poor speech and word recognition
-
Anybody 65 years old or older
Your participation can help improve music listening for those with hearing loss and contribute to advancing hearing aid and cochlear implant technology.
